when the thread was started... i was just pissed @ the local events... especially the idiot that had a machine gun to shoot @ random ppl.
guns per say are innofensive if left alone... I guess i wanted to share the frustration.
As for gun control, there will always be 2 sides of the story, and it's not what was intended.
As for what types of guns should be legislated/controlled, indirectly was taken in the thread... can't really say one has a bazooka or automatic gun like the one used for self defense or hunting.
Personally, i'm not too confortable w/ ppl carying guns, but that's my opinion.
We can discuss this forever... and disagree in many tangents.

bottom line, there was a f***ed guy that decided to go to a college and shoot @ random ppl. Cops were pretty fast to control the situation and although 1 person died and several injured, it could've been much worse... and the bastard is dead.
If anything, he should've killed himself 1st before doing any dammage to others.

my only question is: for what purpose does one buy a gun like the one used in this situation, unless he wants to really shoot lots of targets close by at short time-period, such as an ambush.
Do people use these on herds of pray when there are plenty of pray ?

Personally, I enjoy rapid fire. Burst shootin a handgun (anything from triple-taps to 20-rd-empty-the-mag) is enjoyable as a controlled use of power. I'd LOVE to do the ispca fast shoot competitions but I already have expensive hobbies and don't need to add anymore.

An ambush works two ways. The bad guys will want to shoot a lot to take down the good guys, and the good guys will need to shoot a lot to defeat the ambush. Regardless of what law is passed (from limiting guns to completely eliminating them) the bad guys WILL have guns.

Speaking of use of power, for what purpose does one build a 400rwhp car? The speed limit (even in Texas) is only 70mph. Unless one wants to really get to the 70 limit in a short time-period....?? (rhetorical) I think a part of why we do these things is because we can.

pray = I pray to never get shot.
prey = somebody tries to prey on me, they might get shot.
